Trump boys go wild in the Emerald Isle
https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-48546443Trump boys go wild in the Emerald Isle
6 June 2019
US President Donald Trump's two adult sons poured pints of Guinness on a pub crawl during a stopover in Ireland.
The president and his family are staying in County Clare at his Doonbeg golf resort, which employs hundreds of local people.
Donald Jr and Eric Trump bought drinks for locals, and thanked the tiny village for its "incredible" support.
Teetotaler Mr Trump stayed in Doonbeg on Wednesday, too, but did not join the bar-hopping.
The village of Doonbeg (population about 200) welcomed the Trump sons with fanfare and US flags.
The BBC's Nuala McGovern asked 35-year-old Eric if the pub crawl was a good use of American taxpayers' money.
"We're just trying to have a good time," he replied before heading into Madigan's Bar.

How delusional.
to frolic in the Emerald Isle.
That sucks. republicans owe me. And they owe all the other honest, decent Americans.
I want my tax money used to feed hungry kids, not used to pamper a "billionaire" family of draft-dodging republican dotards.
that will kiss their ass because there's a population of 200 and their golf resort employs "hundreds of local people" so pretty much everyone there works for the Trumps. If course we can expect to see RW owned media play up the supposed adoration of the people there and the Trumptwits will all it up as proof that Trump is loved worlwide.
